- Chop onions and green peppers. Place in glass microwaveable bowl with a spoon of butter. Microwave for 1-2 minutes until tender. Stir occasionally.
[I bought a $1 knife, no more switch-blade cooking for me.]
- Add one can of Tyson chicken.
[DO NOT try saving a dime on the canned chicken. You can't go generic on some things and canned chicken is one of them.]
- Mix in one package of taco seasoning and some water.
- Microwave until the chicken is warm.
- Spoon onto tortillas, top with salsa and cheese.
- Roll up and enjoy another microwave masterpiece.
This has been another additon of Squidoo: Microwave Cooking. Tune in next time for Microwave Meatloaf! [It's cooking right now, and we're a little scared.]
This morning began late. I awoke at the sound of knocking, hearing an unfamiliar voice say, “housekeeping.” Drat. It’s 9am. The breakfast bar closes at 9 at our old hall. It probably does here too. Determined not to make the same mistake again, I walked around the building looking for the breakfast bar and a sign telling the serving times. I couldn’t find any signs or even a place that looked big enough to serve breakfast.
[Later I found out that they don't serve breakfast here. I almost cried. We can't afford to lose that free meal or the free milk. Then I remembered Mat 6:25. No worries. Joel says we can just get up early and drive to a different hall that does serve breakfast.]
I came back to the room and started to plan… We haven’t bought any cooking or eating utensils yet and we’re running low on groceries. [We didn't want to stock up before finding out how big the fridge is.]
People, I need breakfast. I need eggs for breakfast more than coffee. It’s that big of a deal. If you think I’m obsessive about a good cup of joe… you’ve never seen me with a breakfast burrito. This is art.
Step One: Gather supplies.
* small Gladware dish.
* cutting board
* fancy police officer switch blade knife
* scissors
* plastic cups provided by housekeeper
Step Two: Dig through fridge.
* onion
* egg
* margarine [no real clarified butter... sigh]
* tortilla
* salsa
Step Three: Hope the eggs don’t turn green.
*Dice onion with over priced switch blade. Cut plastic cup and create a ’spoon’. Put spoon of butter and onions in Gladware dish. Microwave for around 45 seconds.
*Break egg into Gladware and stir with plastic-cup-spoon. Microwave for 1 minute.
*Top eggs with salsa and wrap in tortilla. Use cutting board as plate.
*Try not to notice that there is no sausage, beans, cheese etc.
Thank God we get paid today. I don’t want to experience life without cheese.
